Delete Section

In this tutorial, we are going to show you how to delete a specific section of a Word document using the Aspose.Words library for .NET. Deleting a section can be useful for rearranging or deleting specific parts of your document. We’ll take you step-by-step to help you understand and implement the code in your .NET project.

Prerequisites

Before you begin, make sure you have the following items:

  • A working knowledge of the C# programming language
  • The Aspose.Words library for .NET installed in your project

Step 1: Create a document and constructor

First, we’ll create an instance of the Document class and an associated DocumentBuilder constructor to build the document.

Document doc = new Document();
DocumentBuilder builder = new DocumentBuilder(doc);

Step 2: Add content and sections

Next, we’ll use the DocumentBuilder constructor to add content and sections to the document. In this example, we’re adding two lines of text and two sections.

builder.Writeln("Hello1");
doc.AppendChild(new Section(doc));
builder.Writeln("Hello2");
doc.AppendChild(new Section(doc));

Step 3: Delete a specific section

To remove a specific section of the document, we’ll use the RemoveAt method of the document’s Sections collection, specifying the index of the section to remove.

doc.Sections.RemoveAt(0);

Sample source code for Delete Section using Aspose.Words for .NET

	builder.Writeln("Hello2");
	doc.AppendChild(new Section(doc));
	doc.Sections.RemoveAt(0);
